Hi
How do I get the length of the connection line ?
PolylineConnection c = new PolylineConnection();
ChopboxAnchor sourceAnchor = new ChopboxAnchor(f1);
ChopboxAnchor targetAnchor = new ChopboxAnchor(f2);
c.setSourceAnchor(sourceAnchor);
c.setTargetAnchor(targetAnchor);
System.out.println("lenght ? : " + c.getSize() ); // <-- problem,
getSize is not correct

Well, I have no problem calculating anything to get the length, but my
problem here is that I do not have any start or end point.
How would I get the sourceAnchor coordinates ?

The endpoints get set when a layout occurs. The connection does not move
immediately when you call setSourceAnchor, etc. What are you trying to do?

Well, basically I want to do 2 things :
1. I want to create a more dynamic method to add a line between 2 Figures
to add a Label in the exact middle and
2. I want to make the Figures dragable (which I was not able to achieve
yet) and update the line between it.
From my understanding I need 2 things, the coordinates of a start and a
end point of the line to know whats between it. Right now I have a very
dirty solution, take the starting point of Figure 1, get the size, get the
middle point of the closest line to the next Figure,... do the same with
the Figure 2 and then calculate the distance between the 2 poings, BUT I
kinda thought since the line is drawn by this "PolylineConnection" it
should knows these 2 points.
